The Gold that Is in the Sea

On the 9th of October, 1899, the La
tine, commanded by Capt. SKINNER,
went ashore on the bank of the Flv
island and 9140, 600 went down with
the vessel.
In the reign of James IL some En-
glish adventures fitted out a vessel to
search for and weigh up the cargo of
a rice Spanish ship which had been
lost on the coast of South America.
They recovered $500, 600. which had
been lying at the bottom of the sea
fOrtY-fOur years. A medal was struck
in England in honor of this event in
1857. In 1867 Il Dutch East Indiaman
foundered, and 9500,000 were lost.
The price of four such Armadas as
that of 1888 went down in the eigh-
teenth century, in shape of gold, sill
yer, and plate. She was the annual
register ship, as the term then was,
and had in her 800. 900 piastras and
10, 900 ounces of gold on account of
the king, and twice that sum on the
merchants account, making her very
rich ship. She foundered, and no
man escaped to tell how and when.
The sum of zoo. 900 sterling. besides
jewels of great vaIue, were lost the
same year in ship from Australia.
A part OF the money was recovered.
This dreadful shipwreck is referred to
in Dickens .UncommercialT Traveller"
The sea has a habit of concealing its
plumber, but science is slowly gaining
fOOthold, even at the bottom of the
sea, and no doubt n time to come
foundered ships carrying down great
treasure will have to yield them up

Sherman and the ParSon.

Gen. Sherman'S presence in the city
recalled an anecdOte that is told of the
general and an Episcopal minister down
south which is well worth repeating.
1t was during the occupation of Memphis.
Sherman had ordered all churches to be
closed on Sunday. The day following
the issue of the order the general was
waited on by man who was appareled in
all the formal garb of the clergy, and
whose face was made solemn by an ex-
preston suggestive of willing martyr.
''Well, sir" said the general, ''what
is your miSSion?"
81 am an EpiscopaNan clergyman, :"
quoth the visitor, ''and L am perplexed
to know how to obey your order. There
seems to be conflict of authority. Ac-
cOrding to our church ritual we are now
directed to pray for the Hon. Jefferson
Davis, president of the confederate
states, and l am enthusiastically bound to
obey orders"
''Oh. never mind,'' said the general
''pray for Davis, pray for him with all
your might. He needs all the prayers
you can make; but, my friend, to be
candid, l am very much afraid praying
will do Inn no good now. He's gone up
''Indeed?" said the rector, with be-
wildered look, 'then shall L pray for
Abraham Lincoln?"
mo, my dear sir, don't do that, he
does not need any prayers. He is just
as sure of salvation as any man that
ever died or will die
Out of curiosity Gen. Sherman attend
ed the Episcopal church the next Sunday.
The minister saw his distinguished
visitor in the audience, and when he
reached the point of conflict in the ser
vice between the church North and the
| church South, with one eye on the prayer
book and the other on Gen. Sherman, he
said: ''Bless the authority over u.s."

A Startling Comparison.

1t is a proved truth that England
spends every year over twenty times
as much for Intoxicating drinks as
for foreign missions. England also
paid for the war in Afghanistan
eight times as much as the entire
church of Christ could devote that
same year to the evangelization of
the heather.
Another startling fact comes to
us from Chicago, which city alone
paid out last year over saloon cOun-
tiers for strong drink nearly six
times what the whole United States
gave for both home and foreign mis-
SiOns.
Again the American nation pays
an annual liquor bill of 5000, 00O,-
600. In the face of this gigantic
crime those people pay for Christians
missions Sc, 100000. This is a fact
which it is impossible to contradict;
a fact that makes a poor showing
for our beloved nation.
Again, the Internal Revenue tax
on tobacco in New York alone in
1879 exceeded $1,000, 900; more
than million and a half beyond
what was given by the whole nation
to bring the heather to Jesus.
Yet again. 1t has been estimated
with care that S6O,OOO,OOO are spent
on 81, 1906 useless cannon shots
every year, in military parades, ETC.,
which of itself is not sinful, but
when compared with the meager
sum of $40, ZOO, 200 which the Chris
tian would give to convert the be
nighted tribes of earth, shows the
disposition of the people who have
this money to spend, six dollars
blown off in smoke, one dollar for
missions. Is this what the Lord
would have done with his funds with
which he intrusted US?

it did the same. He took an apple
from a tree, you would have thought
he had robbed the garden of the
IIesperides. His JOY knew no bounds,
and when he got home he ordered
tina servants to set a splendid repast
on the table. Then he found to his
dismav that whether he touched
bread it hardened in his hand, or
put mOrsel to his lips it defied his
teeth. He took glass of wine, but
it flowed down his throat like melted
gold. In CONSERVATION, fearing
starvation, he held up his arms, shin

sought him to take back his gift.
Bacchus said: $50 to the river
Pactolus, trace the stream to its
fountain head, then plunge your
head and body in, and wash away
your fault and its punishment"
Hence Midas learned to hate wealth
and splendor.
So must we say to those who hav-
ing chosen gold or something else
rather than a good name, now re-
gret their choice. They must 90 to

A Good Name.

Shakespeare says, "a good name
in man or woman is the immediate
jewel of their souls Strange how
often the jewel is bartered for a
lump of gold. Happy is he who
makes choice of a good name at the
beginning of life.
Mackenzie writes, GAS a rill from
a fountain increases as it flows, rises
into a stream, swells into a river, so
symbolically are the origin and
course of a good name. At first its
beginning is small; it takes its rise
from home, its natural source; ex-
tends TO the neighborhood, stretches
through the community, and finally
takes a range proportional to the
qualities by which it is supported;
Its talents, virtue and usefulness
the surest basis of an honorable rep
utation."

No doubt the mere buffoon attempting

truth is not hidden in gloom. Genuine

in the mind bits of wisdom that would
otherwise pass unheeded.
In his eulOgy of Henry Ward Beecher,
Rev. DIR. Parker says: Whenever he
came among men, he brought June sun

Sam Small is likely to succeed as a
moral teacher. When we remember how
